Ok, woes is a bit of an exaggeration. Basically basically I’ve been nomading through the Balkans for a year and got used to buying cereals and fruit for breakfast, eggs with cheese and ham or salads for lunch, and then for dinner I’d cook rice/veggies with some meat/chicken. I’d just eat out maybe on Saturdays as a treat. So I just arrived to Vietnam and when I went to the k-mart nearby, I was completely at a loss. I’m unfamiliar with the products and don’t know what to buy. I did buy some cereal for breakfast (it’s actually super good, some brand I had never seen), and eggs for lunch (although I couldn’t find bread anywhere and they only had the cheese you get in plastic-wrapped slices, not actual cheese like edam, emmental, gouda etc). Now I’m unsure if to keep my lunch and breakfast routine as they were and just get dinner by grab delivery, or if to actually buy some noodles and veggies from the supermarket and try cooking dinner. I’m actually unsure because it doesn’t seem certain that I will save any money by doing so, and I certainly won’t be able to cook asian food better than the restaurants.

Any opinions/experiences about this?
